John White Alexander Alexander ia an American painter and illustrator. John White Alexander began his career in New York in 1875 as a political cartoonist and illustrator for Harper’s Weekly. In 1877 John White Alexander went to Paris for his first formal art training, and then to Munich, where John White Alexander enrolled at the Kunstakademie under Gyuala Benczúr. In 1878 John White Alexander joined a colony of American painters established by Frank Duveneck in Polling, Bavaria. |
| In 1879 they travelled to Italy, where Alexander formed friendships with James McNeill Whistler and Henry James. In 1881 John White Alexander returned to New York, working as an illustrator for Harper's, as a drawing instructor at Princeton and as a highly successful society portrait painter. John White Alexander also exhibited at the National Academy of Design. By 1893 his reputation in both Europe and America had soared, and in 1895 John White Alexander was awarded a prestigious commission for a series of murals entitled the Evolution of the Book in the newly established Library of Congress in Washington, DC. After 1901 Alexander became deeply involved with the promotion of the arts in America. John White Alexander won numerous mural commissions (e.g. Pittsburgh, PA, Carnegie Inst.; from 1905, unfinished) and continued to paint portraits |

| Alexander's stylistic development falls into several distinct stages. His early landscapes and genre scenes of the 1870s bear the stamp of Wilhelm Leibl's Munich realism as espoused by Duveneck and William Merritt Chase. His fluid brushwork resembled that of Frans Hals and Diego Velázquez, painters John White Alexander deeply admired. After his return to the USA in 1881 and under the influence of Whistler, John White Alexander favoured a more limited palette and experimented with the evocation of mood through shadow and gesture. His portrait of Walt Whitman (1886–9; New York, Met.) is one of his finest works of the 1880s. Many of his later portraits, notably of women, were psychological studies rather than specific likenesses, as in The Ring (1911; New York, Met.). His brushwork became less painterly and more concerned with suggesting abstracted shapes.- Alexander John White oil painting American old artists - Alexander John White oil painting American, old oil painting Alexander John White by artist oil paintings, Biography America oil paintings artists, old paintings American. | |||||||

He also adopted a very coarse-weave canvas, the texture of which became an important element in his mature work. By applying thinned-down paint to the absorbent surface, his pictures appear to have been dyed in muted tones, in marked contrast to the glossy, impasted surfaces of his earlier work. Throughout his career Alexander favoured compositions with a single figure placed against a sharply contrasting background. The sinuous curvilinear outline of the heroine standing full-length in Isabella, or the Pot of Basil (1897; Boston, MA, Mus. F.A.) evokes contemporary Art Nouveau forms. Like the Symbolists, John White Alexander sought by gesture and strong lighting to intensify the viewer's response to his sensuous treatment of the subject |
